I'm a fashion and music fan....and I have always loved dancing too of any kind. Dancing With The Stars seems to have this way of bringing all of those things together. One of my favorite dancing quotes at the moment: "No matter what, nobody can take away the dance you've already had...." ~Gleb Savchenko .

I really enjoyed Carson…. He was definitely the brightest sparkler in the Ballroom, and I do mean that in the nicest possible way. What a true and honest JOY he has!!!

Kashti, I really don’t know about the pairings…. Whatever they do, I hope that they either pair EVERYONE with new partners, or EVERYONE with original partners.

However, that would mean that there are a LOT of previous contestants who will not be able to come back. Jonathan isn’t on anymore. Julianne isn’t on anymore. Edyta isn’t on anymore. Alec isn’t on anymore. Strike all of their partners off the eligible list.

I think what will happen is that they are going to mix original partners and new partners, which is going to stink.

I do love the show, but I never doubt the producers ability to mess it up.

How is this idea: if the show manages to get both carson and Anna, they should pair evan with anna and carson with peta. we could see what she can do with caarson and if she could make him improve even more than he did with anna.

See, Vin, that brings up something that I’m afraid is going to happen…. SOME being paired with their original partners, and SOME being paired with a new partner. I don’t think that’s fair… I want ALL to have their original, or ALL to have new partners, but I am resigned to the fact that not everyone will be put on the same level playing field.

@Lori: I think that peta and tristan and val are going to get new partners. i would love to see sherri back nut odds are its not going to happen. I just think that it won’t (hopefully) be a bad thing. Carson and Peta seem like they would get along but whoever Val and Tristan get might take a while to get used to them (my picks would be Marie Osmond for tristan and for Val Audrina Patridge)
